MASSAGE ENVY THERAPISTS ACCUSED OF 180 SEXUAL ASSAULTS

On Sunday, the site reported that over 180 women have filed police reports and lawsuits against the franchise. The women claim that their therapists groped them and other forms of sexual abuse.

After the news broke the franchise said it was “heartbreaking,” and that they will “never stop looking for ways to help [their] franchisees provide a safe environment.”

The company also released a statement to the Washington Post in regards to the claims. “The article references 180 reported incidents,” the company said in the statement. “These occurred over a span of 15 plus years and 125 million massages. But, we believe that even ONE incident is too many, so we are constantly listening, learning, and evaluating how we can continue to strengthen our policies with respect to handling of these issues.”
